Senior Play; Senior-Middle Play; Spanish Play.
We had all heard that Ruth had great dramatic ability, but we
didn't realize how much she had made <>f her talent until after
the Senior Play. If she should undertake a stage career, we
know that with her usual determination, uot to say stubbornness,
she would make good. We may have entertained a genius
unawares.

Ltzzie shines in 1919 along literary lines, and we wonder what
we would do without her clever si tries and amusing poems to
make our Lit. classes pass so pleasantly. Lizzie also has a great

Some people adore " Poll-Parrots'* — anyway, K.'s one of these.
She has her own little pet, and they're just too clubby for words.
K. will never shiver for want of clothes — long ones. We are
much indebted to her for the grinds which she managed to re-
member for this hook; and as for her Courant write-ups on lec-

K. is level-headed, ties —
And .net she's far away from crowds;

A way up in the clouds.

Although Gertrude has been with us a very short time, we can

that the Bradford Basket-ball game never came off, as Gret
surely would have saved the day for us by the nifty way in which
she can toss baskets. Then how she can play the piano! X le

seemly plumpness was gained at Abbot. Mary is a good exam-

to being called Pearl, but we jusl could n"t resist it.

Jane, what would we do in the History class if you didn't fill
up the gaps in the conversation? Never mind, some of us envy
you that art. Jane is an all-round good sport with never-ending
pep. She keeps everyone busy, even the faculty. We all like
Jane, she's so generous and good-natured and jolly. She might
almost be called " Sunny Jim.'' Abbot certainly won't seem
natural without her.

When wr consider how many excuses she has to find for chapel

"Do you study in the afternoon?"
-Oh. never!'"'
"Do you study directly after dinner?"
"Oh, no, I 'm usually busy until ten."
"You should never study after ten."'

Intervale

At the end of Exams comes our Intervale.
And to go there so often we've sighed,
For we've heard such tales of those mountain trails,
And our dreams have long been denied.

Now we have really been there
And we all love it so,
Just wait until yon go there
And then you'll really know
"What fun is.
It's worth Psych and Art History and College Mathematics.
Our Intervale
("For Lore")
"We took goloshes: everybody ploshes
In the snowdrifts, up there :
We took our skates, too. cracked our little pate-, too,
On the ice rifts up there.
We are a crew well banged up,
And so black and blue,
But what 's left of us, what *s not reft of us,
We have brought hack to you.
("After You've Gone")
While we were gone, we did some skiing,
Tobogganing and some sightseeing;
We *ve been glad, far from sad.
And had the hestest time we've ever had.
You '11 go up there, now don't you miss it,
Thought of exams, you just dismiss it.

Oh, how you grow there!

In this place of inspiration and of dreams,
We are like the tiny argosies that ply their way alone,
Setting out from peaceful havens, so to cany out their scheme-.
And we 're longing for the going with a haunting sense of pain
That ever lead- us onward like a finger beckoning white.
We go out our little parts to play, but we return again
To our lire of inspiration, fading torches to relight.
And a- we carry onward through our nagging daily cares.
Over rocks and up the mountains to success,
The thin".' that keep- us going and that keeps us out of snares
1- the tender memory, like a soft care--.
Of tho-e hack here who love us, wait fulfillment of our
dreams,
And arc proud of every worthy thing we do;
And who wait for our returning with a
soothing love that seems
To send us hack to battle strong anew.
Oh, here we "\e had our sorrows
With little tragic pain,
And here our gay tomorrows
Always made each sadness gain,
For we have all been comrade- here,
Hut now our work is done.
And we -et out w ithout a fear
Our larger course to run.

The Outcome
THE sky-way was almost deserted one bright
June morning. Two dapper little planes
were approaching each other at headlong speed
with a swaying, swinging swagger which" he-
tokened the absent-mindedness of their drivers.
There was a collision ! ! ! ! And the two
planes settled like tiny broken birds. Two be-
goggled figures raised themselves from the
debris.
"What is the matter with you?"
" It was all your fault ! "
'* You were wrong. You don't know the sky
regulations."
Very much heated by these vehement pro-
tests, the two indignant pilots snatched off
their helmets.
" ( 'ami." gasped one.
"Why! It's Buzz.'" drawled the other.
"What are you doing here?"
'" 1 "in on my way to visit Cora. She's run-
ning Child's, you know. Grace is visiting her.
too. She is taking a special ' Gym " course.
My main reason, though, is to see Beth, who is
making her first appearance at the Boston
Opera House this week. "Where are you
going? "
"I'm coming from Bonney's. She has heen
made accountant for the foreign mail and has
just given another Duxbury house party. All
the old hunch were there. Hat has heen doing
animated cartoons for the movies and Wygie has
heen posing for her. Gret as a typist is a
splendid pianist. Dot has taken over Marcellus
Hofflin Co.. and 1 "m her traveling salesman.""
•• ( arol ! Of all things, that is news! Have
you heard about Kathleen? She has made a
decided success with the Ballet Russe. and Kitty
has joined the Anti-Fat Association and is
working desperately. Ginnie i> teaching Psy-
chology at Hampton University, ably assisted
by Marion Nichols, who is in charge of the
Darkey Brotherhoods. Tell me about some
more of the girls."'
"Let"- see. you heard, of course, that Marea
bas settled down to sweet domesticity, having
given up her quest for academic degrees. Betty
Wright has designed a magnificent mansion for
her. She has won other architectural laurels
by designing a new conservatory at which Dotty
Will is busy teaching the masculine element to
do, re, me, fa, sol."
" Did you hear that Mary Cole is staff re-
porter on the Kennehunk Sfitr? And Margaret
Dane is doing reconstruction work in France."
•• How splendid! By the way. are you going
to Intervale this winter? Millie Frost is tak-
ing Mr. Bassett's place in conducting the Abbot
Alumnae Tours."
" Xo ! Oh. Carol, I was in Xew York last
month and I saw little Jo Hamilton, who's
become the Maude Adams of the age in ' Peter
Fan.' Do you believe in fairies?"
" I certainly do. Speaking of fairies, Mein-
mie Chandler is married, lives down in Maine,
has a cute little farm, an' ducks, an' pigs, an'
everything."
"' Bless her heart ! I wonder what else I can
tell you. Gladys Merrill is still doing research
work in history and is one of the best authori-
ties in the country. Times will change ! Her
roommate, Dorcas King, is teaching Gym and,
as Gym teachers usually do. has announced her
engagement."'
" 1 heard that Nadine Scovill is senator from
Xew York state, and Dot Tyler is her secretary
and campaign manager."
•■ Have vou heard that Clemmie has just de-
feated Molla Bjursted for the International
Tennis Championship?" queried Buzz.
" Xo. but 1 saw Fizzie Armstrong last week.
She "s starring in the musical hit of the season.
"The Girl Who Laughs.' and Gwen. you know,
is playing with the Symphony this week. We
must n't miss her.'"
" Xo, indeed, and you must sec Elizabeth
Luce on your way home. She is training ballet
dancers in Xew York. What do vou think of
that?"
'" I declare!" laughed Carol. '"But you
know Ruth Alley never went on the stage at
all. She is teaching Vocal Expression at
Smith. Margaret Greeley has married Profes-
sor Alhrecht. the eminent. Psychologist."
" Speaking of education. .Jane Holt is the
head of the Andover Home for the Aged, and
Grace Francis is drawing magazine-cover girls
for the Metropolitan" said Buzz, with a well-
known " he-he."
"That's nothing. Stark and Clark are run-
ning a large clothing emporium in Ballardvale.
and Frances Moses is giving swimming lessons
at the X. Y. A. A." Another laugh. " Did n't
any of the girls go back to teach?"
■■ < >h. yes, Helen Locke is interpreting Chi-
38
nese at school. We got oul just in time, Carol.
[rene Franklin is teaching Latin at Columbia

just heard yesterday that Gertrude Bowman
is an accompanist Tor Sousa's Band."
"Mary Brewer is happy. She's an influen-
tial member of Worcester Society, and is run-
ning the Charity Hull this year with Jennie
Man- to assist her."
Rattle-de-bang, clap, clap, bang; a voice from
the tumult. "Want any help?" An anti-
quated Ford truck appeared, breathing out its
last on the up-grade and coming to a stop with
a final groan of despair. A majestic figure dis-
mounted from the front seat and regarded the
rear axle with motherly concern.
"Copie, Copie!"' screamed Carol, plowing
through the remains of her splintered plane
toward her beloved pal. "Copie!" and with
another stride reached her outstretched arms
and was clasped in a tight embrace.
" Oh ! I am so glad to see you ! Buz/, is here!
Our planes hit each other, hut we weren't hurt.
Come over and tell us all the spice."
"Hello, Buzz' how are you? What have
you and Carol been doing to each other?'"
"Oh. Copie, isn't this just like old times?
What have you been doing? Do tell us all the
spice."
" Why, 1 'm patrol of the Newton Skyway.
1 '\e just been released from Naval duty and
have been over to put my Caproni Biplane in
the hangar. Let me see. what can 1 tell you?
Well, Ruth Hathaway is leader of the National
Community sings, and Ellie Taylor is in charge
of the New Rochelle Branch, having made such
a success that she managed to get Stibby away
from the whirl of Springfield society long
enough to captivate the hearts of the hoys.''
"Up to their old 1 ricks." said Buzz. "Jerry
Murray has just published a pamphlet on ' How
Lillian Bussed and I Retain Our Beauty.' I Hi
trying the treatment myself."
Carol, disgustedly, " Humph!"
Copie. undisturbed, " I can tell you etome
more if you -top discussing beauty long enough
to listen. Bubbles never sees the old crowd anj
more as she is so wrapped up in her beloved
settlement work that she can't bear to Leave
Worcester. And Pearl Button has finally
formed the link between Vermont and Cali-
fornia by her famous trip on which she tried,
with great Buccess, the 'Eat and Crow Thin
Diet!!' And I've heard about nearly all the
girls that lived near Andover. Helen Hole i-
head of the Lawrence City Mis-ions, and Dor-
othy Evans has roused the people by her stirring
speeches on factory conditions. Elizabeth Sjos-
trom has founded the New Andover Jitney Sys-
tem and is r unn ing back and forth and around
for Phil(l)ip's friends and their Buitcases, and
Mooev Johnson is doing kindergarten work on
the bill. Dot Shapleigh is exhibiting remark-
able china in her charming little Andover gift-
shop."
" Isn't it just great to hear about what every-
one is doing! " exclaimed Buzz. " I saw Gladys
(ilendinning's name on a movie billboard the
other day, and Grace Kepner is making mil-
lions writing movie scenarios."
" Harriet Harrison is running a IIo>te»
House at Hotchkiss," interposed Carol, "and
Catherine Dan forth is doing her bit for the
development of the ' Fleet.' while Margaret
Worman is posing for Harrison Fisher and is
also taking a course in expert photography. By
the way. isn't, or rather, wasn't my plane a
beauty? T got it from ' K.' Beck. She has
been giving us all pointers in the aviation

Buzz, as usual. " My! but I 'm hungry, isn't
there a dog-cart around here somewhere? 1
can't leave my plane.''
Copie. rising. " Come on up to the bouse for
breakfast. As for the planes, we'll take them
along. Hop in. I '11 pick them up."
Bang, clappety bang, clap . . . and the
faithful little Ford once more took up its bur-
den of life, said burden not by any means
lessened by the addition of Carol and the
splinters, to say nothing of Buzz!

THE ORPHANS OF FRANCE
Tin war orphans speak:
Our feet are so sine, and we've wandered ><> far,
And we 're tired, we orphans of France.
And we've no mother's arms into which we may creep
To pour out our troubles and then fall asleep
In that shelter of love all so cozy and deep.
And the winters are cold, lure in France.
Matin / Earth speaks:
Yes, winter must come as tlie seasons roll round.
You poor tired babies of France.
But I "11 make a place on my frost-hardened breast
Just as soft and as downy as any bird's nest.
And there you may lie and may dream, as you rest,
Of your mother's breast, orphans of France.
Tin I'n in speaks:
And tho' I must fall, I wont trouble your sleep,
Little travel-worn babies of France.
But gently I "11 bathe the tear -tains from your face.
And cool blistered feet till you dream for a space
Of a happier time and a happier place,
And your mother's hands, orphans of France.
Tin Snow speaks:
And I must dexend when the Winter commands,
Little shivering bodies in France.
But I '11 conic just a- gently, and fall -oft and white
To make you a blanket through Winter's long night,
And you '11 dream it s your mother's arms holding you tight.
Those mother's arms, orphans of France
Tin W'inil sp< ul.s :
And I, too. am subject to Winter's command-.
Little gun-deafened babies of France.
But I '11 blow, oh so gently, and croon soft and low.
And you sleeping sweetly there, under the -now.
Will dream of a lullaby sung long ago,
And your mother's love, orphans of Prance.

Synopsis
To Molly"* great chagrin her maid elopes just
after her guests, Dorothy March and Max Ten Eyck,
have arrived. However, she is fortunate enough to
get a supposed maid, really June Haverhill, Wellesley
'06, who is doing some special investigation for eco-
nomics courses Juring the summer. Embarrassing
for June was the fact that, though to Molly she was
known by the name of the first maid. Ellen, she was
recognized by Bob, Molly's brother, who now falls in
love with her. She is also recognized by Max. who
is engaged to Dorothy because his late aunt's money
was left to them both on condition that they marry
each other. But Max is actually in love with June,
while in the meanwhile an eccentric rector, John
Hume, falls in love with Dorothy. Dorothy, how-
ever, though sympathetic, is not in love with the
lector.
Molly'- new 'maid'' is absent the next morning
early and, though she is only golfing with Bob, all
believe her to have followed the first maid's example
in eloping. Meanwhile Mr. Hume leaves on the garden
table a passionate note to Dorothy, expre-sing his de-
sire to win her. and signed with his initials. J. H.,
which are also the initials of June Haverhill. Shortly
afterward Max and Dorothy break their engagement.
and hereupon Max finds Mr. Hume's note. He is
much disturbed, thinking that it is from June to
himself. On returning. Mr. Hume delights in the
absence of the note, because he thinks that Dorothy
has taken it.
Before the garden party that evening. Molly finds
out who her new maid is. It seem- to be an evening
of proposals. To June's great di-gust Max proposes
because he thinks it his duty, having had a former
affair with her, and having read the note signed
J. H. Finally, however, the misunderstanding is
explained by the supposition that the note is one of
Bob's jokes. Then June becomes angry with Boh.
The second proposal is that of Mr. Hume to the
horrified Dorothy. Max, however, who has decided
that lie really loves her. comes to her rescue, and
they again become engaged. Mr. Hume's proposal ex-
plains the note, and so Bob and June, forgetting their
quarrel, become engaged, and. as a good story should
end. all live happily ever afterwards.

Dickon, the tapster's knave Gwendolen Bossi
SAM, helper to the hostler Anna Hussey
The Landlord Martha Stockwell
Lady Joan Eliza Ba i lej
Sir Hugh Carol Perrin
Synopsis
Those with keen ears might have heard the fol-
lowing conversation between Dickon and Sam soon
after the great incident in the former lad's life as
portrayed on the Abbot stage under the title of " The
Patched Cloak":
Dickon. P faith, Sam, 'tis true, every word of
it. Thou dost remember how 1 told thee of my wild
hopes of adventure and untold fortune? I sat there
shining the tankard-, and thou wert taking thine
ease on yon bench by the fire. Give ear, then, and I
will tell thee what did befall after the hostler had
so rudely called thee away. As I sat alone dream-
ing of that gorgeous cloak of Sir Walter Raleigh's
all dripping with mud, — what dost thou think, Sam.
— a lady opened the door! She would not have me
take time to call mine host, but asked me to belp
her. 'T was such a pretty talc she told of running
away from a knavish brother who bid her marry
against her will, that 1 sought to protect her. So
ere the gentleman arrived, she donned my patched
cloak and set to work shining the tankards.
Sam. Hold, Dickon, did na the lord espy her'.'
Dickon. Ay. but lie paid no heed to her when I
rated her roundly for her lack of diligence as I
would any scullery maid. He suspected that I knew
of her whereabouts and grew so wroth that he would
have thrashed me. had not the landlord happily come
to my rescue. But he sided with the gentleman, and
things wore like to go ill with me, when, in the nick
of time, the lady revealed herself. And. Sam. 't was
all nought but a jest between Lady .loan and Sir
Hugh, who was a guest of her father's.
Sam. A jest. Dickon! Then how comest thou by
the wondrous fortune that thou toldst me of now?
DICKON. Marry, because I had taken part, though
all unwittingly, in a wager they had betwixt them.
Sir Hugh hath said that no man could insult her
with him standing by and not presently receive a
beating the like of which he hath ne'er felt before.
P faith, when 1 called her "slothful Janie " and
"lazy wench " and Sir Hugh dealt me no thwacks for
my rude words, lie thereby lost the wager and her for-
feit of a kiss. My lady seemed well pleased and
rewarded me loyally for my service in her behalf by
helping my good Mother. But Sir Hugh was not
content to accept defeat thus, for according to their
wager, should he disregard an insult to hi- lady and
another man champion her cause, she was to give
her kiss to that other man. Sam. lie would have had
Lady Jean give her kiss to me! Truly, I knew not
what to say. and before I could gather my scattered
wits lie offered to give me a place in his service it
1 would let him have her kiss. Was it not a right
pretty bargain, Sam'.' Come Monday next. I am to
be Sir Hugh's man, to wear his livery and earn fif-
teen shillings a month.
Sam. Thou ever wort a lucky fellow, Dickon. Me-
thinks thy lord is strangely generous with his
favors or else be sorely coveted the lady's klSS. Dosl
think -he ha' given it him. after all?
DICKON. Ay, tor the landlord said tiny were right
friendly at supper, and he doth not often see much
farther than his nose.

AIrs. Wixthrop Lowell, Mr. Hunnewell's sister Elizabeth Stewart
Bobby Lowell, her son ' Bertha Worman
Elizabeth Lowell, her step-daughter Dorothy Fisher
Richard Johnson, a young business man Helen Locke
Synopsis
In his will, the late George Lowell inserted a
clause which made it impossible for his daughter,
Betty, to come into possession of her share of his
estate if she married without the approval of her
-tepmother, Mrs. George Winthrop Lowell. Airs.
Lowell is strongly prejudiced against anyone who is
not a member of one of the " first families " and
consequently makes it very uncomfortable for Rich-
ard .Johnson, a rising young business man who is in
love with Betty. Airs. Lowell, with Betty and her
-mall son, Bobby, is spending the summer with her
brother, Air. Hunnewell. She is indignant because
lie. a- Betty's guardian, allows Air. Johnson to visit
them, and during one of his visits, while the young
people, assisted by Bobby, who is jealous of both of
them, are playing tennis, a heated discussion is held
by the aristocratic Airs. Lowell, her brother and
sister-in-law. Since the death of her own mother.
Betty has spent the greater part of her time with
her aunt and uncle, whom she loves as an own
mother and father and who wish to let nothing
stand in the way of her happiness. They are both
very fond of Air. Johnson and believe him to be the
finest of her admirers. Neither Betty nor Air. John-
son know of her father's will, but Air. Johnson from
a -ense of unwortbiness because he has no family.
determines not to reveal his love for Betty, and until
the day of which I speak, lie had not called at the
Hunnewells' for some time. During this visit they
accidentally find that their love is mutual, and as
Betty assures Richard that his family does not
matter, they happily await Air. Hunnewell*s return
from a committee meeting to secure his consent.
Betty tells Richard during the evening of her step-
cousin, Dick Hunnewell. who was drowned at sea
about ten years ago. and Richard is telling what
he remembers of his life with his Uncle Dan, an old
sea captain, when Airs. Lowell interrupts them with
the pretense of looking for " Robert."' In the mean-
time Bobby, in a playful tussle with Air. Johnson.
has discovered a very interesting triangular bald
spot on the top of that young man's head, which fact
he confides to his aunt and finds that it excites her
very much indeed. Richard asks Hr. Hunnewell to
help him find his family, as L'ncle Dan has told him
that he is no relation to him and that he was picked
up out at sea when he was about fifteen years old.
Tints enabled by the bald spot on his head and the
fact that he v. as picked up at sea, near Gloucester
Air. and Airs. Hunnewell discover Richard Johnson
to be their long-lost son, and Airs. Lowell, not will-
ing to be found in error, asserts that she was deeply
pained to object to "Air. John — er Richard." but
i- very glad that it is not necessary, and gives her
consent, which completes the happiness of all. most
of all, Bobby, for. all complications having been
straightened out. lie can now see that fascinating
bald spot again.

THE PROM
We have a Prom at Abbot, and for weeks before it
come-.
In each room and everywhere the talk about it hum-:
There 's the one eternal question, " Who 's the man
you 're going to a>k'r "
Then you fill your order- out. which surely i> a task.
And then the day draws nearer and our dresses they
inspect.
Each layer of tulle, each ruffle and each tuck do they
dissect.
For necks are high at Abbot and sleeves are just so
long.
And yards and yards of tulle are bought that they
may not be wrong.
At last the night itself arrives, and soon the music
starts,
Sending thrill- and flutters to the many l>eating
heart-.
But why, you say, about a dance should this excite-
ment l>e ?
Because we have them once a year, and only once,
